Bellevue Mayor Don Davidson requested a moment of silence Tuesday to remember Lynn Johnson, a longtime supporter of community programs who died Jan. 16.

Davidson noted Johnson's involvement with the Bellevue Arts Commission, a performing arts center feasibility study that lead to the creation of the Performing Arts Center Eastside plan, and Bellevue's 50Fest birthday celebration.

"Lynn Johnson was a tireless supporter for the arts in Bellevue and the region, and her involvement spanned decades," Davidson said. "Our community is richer for her contributions, and we will miss her."
